Zero-Lubrication, Maintenance-free and High Load Capacity Spherical Bearing

igubal® spherical bearings are designed to offer a significant reduction in costs due to their zero-lubrication, maintenance-free function. igus® bearings can reduce overall bearing costs by 40% while also being 80% lighter than steel bearings. These bearings are engineered with advanced composite plastic materials, which include base polymers for wear resistance, reinforcing fibers for high forces, and solid lubricants for smooth operation. They are resistant to dirt, dust, and corrosion, suitable for use in various environments, including those with liquids and dirty conditions. Additionally, this igubal® self-aligning bearings are noted for their shock, impact, and edge load resistance, contributing to their durability and cost-effectiveness.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between plastic spherical bearing vs metal spherical bearing?

igus® plastic spherical bearings offer advantages in terms of weight, cost, maintenance, and resistance to environmental factors, making them ideal for many industrial applications. Metal bearings, while heavier and requiring more maintenance, are often preferred for their high load capacity and durability in extreme conditions.

Do igubal® have FDA versions?

Certainly! The igubal® FC product line offers FDA compliance with visually and magnetically detectable material options. Compliant with FDA and EU 10/2011, these products can be used in food contact and packaging applications.
